Nightmarish Tale

He lurks and creeps, He sees and seeks. Predator is his name, Hunting is his game. He sees a girl sitting on a stool, Without hesitation his mouth begins to drool. He buys her a drink, and one for himself, With a sinister smile he says, "Cheers to good health!" She's flattered and lost, Not knowing what's at cost. She welcomes him with open arms, Never seeing past his wicked charms. For now she is persuaded, Unknowing her life will be faded. Her future is coming to an end, No more wounds for her to mend. With a quick gesture, she's in his car, Then reassures her that he doesn't live too far. His moves were swift like his pipe of lead, Now darkness clouds her precious head. In his world of pain and fear, Only her screams shall she hear. Tears run ramped down her face, Praying for a way out of this hellacious place. All her attempts of fights and screams, Do nothing more than fulfill his dreams. She prays it will be over soon, Just a rape and home by noon. But this will not, be a quick ordeal, For it will be long before, she sees death's seal. Hope for mercy, hope for light, Know to herself, she has one last night. Where is God, so called savior, Unacceptable is his behavior. Is this how her devotion be repaid, Is this the way her life shall fade. Now it is time to say farewell, A chilling end to this brutal hell. No more moments for her to cry, No more tears for her to dry. He will once again, hunt his prey, She will never again, see the light of day.
